What you think of this?

Just wondering, do casinos in UK usually have a bad reputation? The one I'm close to (Gala Casino, Stockport, UK) seems quite good. Min - £3 ($6) Max - £100 ($200). Double on 9, 10, 11. Dealer stay on soft 17

4 decks, 85% pen

What you guys think?? Worth a shot.. oh and they don't have a clue about counters

The basic stradegy engine on this site give the house edge as .71%. might need to spread more than at game with better rules.

It depends

This game could go from borderline to decent depending on some more rules data. Is it DAS? and is there LS and /or ENHC? The range would be.-41 for all optimal rules up to -.71 if none of the above are in effect.

.71 sounds quite high. In my opinion, this is a pretty playable game, the pen helps it. Not phenomenal, but certainly playable. Can you take insurance normally?

I would agree, penetration is usually more important than a lot of rules. With surrender this would be a pretty decent game, especially to learn/play with lower limits.

Yes, they do have surrender. Found new updates. They play 1- 100 pounds, 5 - 500, and 25 - 1000 pounds. With a bankroll of 10000 !!pounds!! Thats 20,000 dollars remember, what should my team of 4 be looking to play?

Honestly, your team of 4 shouldn't be looking to play at all.

Learn to back-count.

Keep in mind that UK casinos do not have Insurance. (They do have even money.) This does not affect the Basic Strategy edge. But is quite painful to counters.
